一年四季有春夏秋冬，每個時節的景色都不同，嘉明湖當然也不例外。去年有幸看到滿水位的嘉明，兩三個月後再上去時，水少了很多，不過卻拍到之前的遺憾，水鹿一枚。
There are four seasons: spring, summer, autumn, winter. Each season has its own distinct flavour and feeling, so dose Jiaming Lake. Last year, I had enough lucky to see Jiaming Lake full of water. Several months later, I take some picture when there is no rainfall for a long time.
↑嘉明湖吸引人的原因之一。Formosan Sambar Deer, one of the famous spots on Jiaming Lake. 
↑低水位的嘉明湖，攝於 1 月。 Dry on Jan. .
↑湖面結冰摟！The lake was frozen several days ago. 
↑湖邊一堆碎屑堆積物。Lots of debris. However, there is no source nearby.
↑高水位的嘉明湖，攝於 10 月。Wet on Oct. . The color is beautiful.
↑和低水位相比，完全看不到石頭。Comparing with dry season, the rocks are below the water on wet season.
看起來，有時要剛下過雨就上山才能看到美景，雖然風險多少多了些。

小琉球，一個由珊瑚礁構成的小島嶼。離台灣第二大城市高雄不過二十餘公里，卻沒有鋼筋水泥構成的高樓，也沒有繁忙吵雜的街道，只有一片藍天，清澈的海水，金黃的沙灘。
Lamay Island is a coral island and only at the distance of 20km to Kaohsiung City which is the second largest city in Taiwan. However, unlike a urban area, there is no busy street, no high building. Clear sky, golden beach and blue ocean is what you will see when you land Lamay Island.
↑A crab enjoy beauty.
島上交通主要由環島和穿越島中心的公路為主，對外交通則主要依賴往返東港之間的交通船。
There are two major road in the island. One runs around the island, another road across island in direction of north. The only way of getting in and out of the island is by sea(in Chinese).
↑Golden beach, hard to find in Taiwan. 電影才看得到的金色沙灘。
↑Clear water. 水超乾淨。
↑Beauty. 比墾丁和西子灣漂亮多了！
除了金黃沙灘，主要由石灰岩構成的小琉球也有許多令人讚嘆的景色。
Besides having the golden beach, Lamay Island also own huge of beautiful landscapes due to limestone.
↑More beauty than a lot of famous places in Taiwan. 比墾丁和西子灣漂亮多了！

嘉明湖，一座位於海拔 3310m 的高山湖泊，每年吸引上千的登山客一探其真面目。
Jiaming Lake, a high-altitude lake on Central Range in Taiwan. The lake is 3310 meter above sea level and evidences suggest that it is a glacial lake, although most of people think it is a crater.
↑嘉明湖。 Jiaming Lake.
↑夜幕低垂，水鹿悄悄的來到。 Sambar, after nightfall.
每當晴空萬里時，耀眼的陽光和寬廣的藍天倒映在令人心醉的湖水中，點綴上幾朵白雲，令人心胸開廣；而當雲霧飄渺時，一陣陣的風更替她披上神祕的面紗。夜深，繁星取代藍天之刻，陳群結隊的水鹿來到湖邊覓食，在黑暗中和牠們一同享受美好時光。
這就是嘉明湖的誘人之處，不過，如同所有高山，這看似不長的十二公里的路途，卻是危機四伏，讓許多人一去不返！
雖然大部分的人認為嘉明湖是隕石坑遺跡，然而目前的證據指出嘉明湖應該是冰河遺跡。
On good weather, the lake is like a mirror. Blue sky and moving clouds reflected in it. After nightfall, groups of sambar(deer) start to seeking food and water near the lake. Those reasons make people willing to hike more than 12km and sleep in a tent. Although, the temperature might drop to less than 0°C at night and many people lost their life or simple disappear on this trail.
↑前往嘉明湖最方便的路徑是經由南橫的向陽登山口。在警察局繳交入山證就可以進入了。

偶然在網路上看到這個地方，離台南市又不遠，於是就跑去找了。新化草原在虎頭埤附近，小徑一堆，花了一些時間才找到。
I found this place over Internet. It's not far away Tainan City and near Hu-Tou Pei Scenic Are. However, only a few people know how to go there.
新化草原大部分都位於軍事管制區，是實彈演習場地，所以管制區深鎖的時候，愛惜自己生命，麻煩大家就不要再闖了。而也許是因為演習，部分管制區內的草原被燒成焦黑，但是位於管制區內，就沒有拍了。
Most of Hsin-Hua Grasslands are in a military restricted zone. Live ammunition may be used during maneuvers in the area. Beware of the announcement!
在此呼籲大家有點公德心，使用原有道路，不要如照片中的人。還有一些騎腳踏車的車友，不要亂闖大門深鎖的管制區。

二寮是南部著名觀賞日出的景點，位於台南縣龍崎鄉，本身位於南北走向低矮的丘陵上，朝東和台南另一著名景點 308 高地對望，岡林溪和草山溪貫穿其中。在兩者之間的低地則是由古亭坑層所構成的惡地地形，但擁有比高雄月世界更茂密的植披。
Erliao is a famous place for it's sunrise. It is located on the west of 308 high and in the meridional direction. Between Erliao and 308 high is a lower badlands composed of mud. There is also two rivers flow through badlands.
↑二寮東望 308 高地。 The 308 high.
也許是此特殊的條件，造成在雨後數天內，低地在清晨時會的山巒層疊、雲霧飄邈的美景，宛如國畫中的夢幻世界。若又碰上可遇不可求的雲層條件，則日出時將是雲霧飄邈，光芒四射，空中點綴著一片片亮麗的雲彩。只可惜迄今本人還沒碰過如此大景。
The sunrise of Erliao has a unusual scene on the conditions of a few days after the rain stopped. The sunlight pass through the fog and create incredible beams. If there are some beautiful clouds in sky, you will see a fairy world. Unfortunately, I have never seen it.

休息片刻，享用午餐之後，再度踏上旅程。隨著地勢的變化，逐漸脫離在樹林中上上下下的鬱悶。
抬頭一看，驚見大峭壁。看來離此次的目標越來越近了。
13:00 PM 到達錐鹿斷崖。不過其實由西往東走時，斷崖的界線沒有很明顯。
等一下就是沿著那條小徑繼續往前走。
往西看立霧溪，可以看到細細的中橫。
走到一半往回看，有沒有很恐怖呀？
站在高處看著名的太魯閣峽谷，這才是世界級景觀！
13:40 PM 離開錐鹿斷崖。
最後的一撇。還要找機會再去一次，這次身體太久沒動，腦筋只想著走路，都忘記要構圖。
14:00 PM 抵達巴達岡二號橋。
巴達岡二號橋。
14:40 PM 抵達巴達岡，毫無遮蔽，決定不看遺跡。
巴達岡門口的兩個石柱。再次塗抹當事人。
接下來一路都是之字型的下坡，應該有數十個，充滿著完全不人性化的樓梯。
有去過太魯閣的橋，應該對它印象深刻。
15:30 PM 抵達燕子口。
果真太久沒動了，剛開始竟然走到肚子痛，搞的拍照都沒辦法思考，沒有幾張照片可用，看來只好和嘉明湖一同列入＂報復＂清單，擇期再來！
